The Aluminium Story | Bauxite to Alumina: The Bayer Process; Bagshaw A.N.; 2017.
Bauxite to Alumina: the Bayer Process is an introductory text on the refining of bauxite ore to alumina as the feedstock for aluminium production. Tony Bagshaw has spent most of his professional life in the international aluminium industry. He has put together a primer on the alumina refining (Bayer) process which can be used by educators at various levels from high school to university and even as an introduction for potential employees in the alumina/aluminium industry. He has kindly made this work available free of charge.
